So. I recall this being brought up long, long ago in a battle. However, as it was brandan VS Rangeet, reffed by Zora, no one really cared. However, I think it deserves exploration.

Just what qualifies for elemental damage?

For example, if you throw a rock with Psychuck, does it count as a rock-type attack? Likewise, what about if, say, the arena had magma? I can see a grass-type taking more damage than normal from being thrown in magma, but I can't see a water-type taking less damage than normal. Thoughts?

People should watch what they enjoy regardless of what others think, even if it's a terribad guilty pleasure.

I think there's a few special rules regarding lava and stuff. I think the same applies to ice. A good bit of ice type attacks don't involve any glow. Then again I'm one of the few people here that thinks Vine Whip and stuff shouldn't be XX so take my opinion with a grain of salt.

Yeah, this is what I've been thinking about. Where do you draw the line, for these kind of things? Using Lava again, Water-types don't seem like they would take less damage, but I'd think Grass-types would take more damage, and Fire-types are, well, Immune to Lava damage or something.

Agree with this, although "being thrown into lava" is an extreme example, as most non-fire/ghosts are in the "totally fucked" range as it is
